Booked HND-JFK eco 35k AA on aa metal for April 3rd.

Would love to snag J or F on either JL or ANA. Any tips or tricks how (and when) to find availability…? (I’m open to flying into any airport in the US…)

Held JFK - MXP on emirates 2 seats first class 102k

Also held FRA - JFk on Singapore 2 seats on first class 143k each

There was actually 1 seat on the SQ flight available for saver at 97k and i tried to get the rep to hold 1 seat in saver and 1 in advantage (143k ) But she just went ahead and did both in advantage and now the saver is no longer available
Did the hold for 2 in advantage cause the saver to disappear ? Im wondering if so I  can maybe cancel one of the holds and maybe the saver will come back available
Sorry I don't have any snarky line for this space

LY TLV FLL 45k QF x6 July
LY JFK TLV 37.8k QF x6 August

Surprised to see so many saver seats open.

But absolutely no X class whatsover, even when the calendar opens 12 months out, as far as I can tell

I've been watching North America - HND closely for a few weeks now. Availability opens regularly T14 and even closer-in for both JAL and AA, usually through ORD but sometimes you can get lucky with DFW and the A350. Use the aa.com month view, if you see 60k biz or 80k first that'll usually be JAL.
